Tekton Electron Be
Based on a $3500 upgrade price for the Be tweeters on the Electron SE...see the link....I'm thinking the upgrade for the standard Electron is more than a couple hundred $$$....so, @jsslv...how much extra did you pay for the Be if you don't mind telling us? https://www.tektondesign.com/electron-se.html |
List price is $3500 for Electron SE Upgrade to Beryllium is an additional $3500.. All the tweeter units are upgraded to SB Acoustics Be tweeters but these are not the Sartori units since they are too wide for the electron cabinet. Each tweeter unit retails at Madisonsound for $299 so for 14 tweeter units , we are looking at $4200 retail ! Tekton is discounting the Electron Be from a retail price of $7000 to $6000 right now. |
Right, I was mixing this up with the other parts upgrade they have. Cardas terminals, "mil spec" (whatever that means) wiring, upgraded caps, etc. The reviews I'm seeing are ranking these up there with speakers ten times the price. So many different positive reviews, including everyone here who's heard them, its almost beyond doubt by now. In fact the main questions have to do with which Tekton model matches best with which room/system, which one seems to be the best value relative to the others, just how significant are the upgrades, etc. |
I auditioned close to 20 pairs of speakers going up into the $15-$20K ranges until I heard a pair of Tektons at an old friends place. I immediately thought, this is the sound I’ve been looking for. I’ve been the proud owner of a pair of Tekton Pendragons since April. Since then, I have done nothing but immensely enjoy the speakers with zero thoughts of regret whatsoever. |
